Tritium Night Sights for My XD-S - $127?

Tritium Night Sights for My XD-S – $127?

{ 6 comments }

am not one who upgrades guns all that much. But since getting my first set of tritium night sights stock on a Springfield EMP, I decided that this is the one thing that for my carry guns I must insist on adding, if I didn’t procrastinate it forever. My main carry gun, and pretty much only carry gun these days, is another Springfield gun, the XD-S in .45ACP. It is a single stack, two finger grip that shoots like a 3 finger grip, or better. And until now, I had indeed procrastinated putting the night sights on it. When I read about the new TFX tritium sights from Truglo, I had to try them. Everything I have purchased Truglo in the past has exceeded expectations for the money, and these sights were no different.

My answer is what the heck do you want one of those for when you can get a killer crossbow for about the same price?

Is this what the Founding Fathers had in mind? That Greg Hardy should be armed to the teeth? That private citizens should be able to purchase cop-killer, armor piercing bullets? That you should be able to have a AK-47?”
